Is the GC capable of outputting DP++ (multi-mode) signals? Yes Should I use the active or passive DisplayPort to DVI Adapter? I would use the active DisplayPort .

You cannot use the cheap passive adapters for DVI to vga because the card has only DVI-I outputs. The expensive active adapters are required.

Hi, Yes you are correct, there are two displayport interfaces and one VGA. Thanks, PCrush

I'm wondering the same thing. You can get component video to VGA converters but that will only convert the signal at the same resolution, so it depends on whether this monitor will support resolutions like 480i and 480p. Does anyone know???

Nope they all will have the same quality it just will depend on your preference. HDMI and DIsplay port can run audio through them. I found I could overlock higher with the DVI cord but I stopped OC'in my monitor in favor of DSR.Edit: it comes with one of each cord and it is Dual-link DVI (just more bandwidth than a standard DVI) so a normal DVI might not work if you happen to lose the one it comes with

As others have mentioned this particular model "G276HL Dbd" has only VGA and DVI and there are no on board speakers or an HDMI. I use this as my main computer monitor and for watching an occasional TV show or movie on the internet. They do make HDMI to DVI adapters however as HDMI is backwards compatible with high end DVI devices. I've coupled this set up with a pair of Logitech speakers X-140 2.0 and I love the monitor and sound especially in this price range. Perhaps you're looking for something a lot higher end, but for the cost this is a very impressive set up, but without the bells and whistles that will be found on (Usually) if not considerably higher priced units.

no, it's a proprietary connector (on card) which fits a breakout cable (provided with card) which in turn provides 2 DVI ports. so in short - 2 DVI output, no VGA. You can of course place a DVI to VGA adapter (passive) on one of the DVI outputs (cable) and thus achieve DVI+VGA but it seems too much hassle given there are many card that will provide that (DVI+VGA) natively, IF that is what you're looking for. Hope that helps.

Yes. We had three on it for a couple weeks and added a fourth today. Two are native DisplayPort and the other two are adapted to DVI--it supports all four. Download the correct driver before you install; the disc that came with mine had the wrong driver.

No, DisplayPort's daisy chain feature requires all the links in the chain to be DisplayPort connections. DVI has a very different (and much older) signaling scheme, which cannot support multiple streams through a single cable, so there is no way to supply the extra data for the second monitor.

Mini-DisplayPort & "regular" DisplayPort use exactly the same signals, only the physical connector size is different. Therefore, only "passive" adapter is needed. An "active" adapter doesn't even exist.

Hello from Ecomade Arena.No.Mini DisplayPort(Thunderbolt) to DVI adapter does not works.That is Mini DP to DVI-Single adapter, it only support 1920*1080 resolution rate.Mini DP to DVI-dual link adapter can support 2560*1440 resolution.

I use this DP adapter on my computer's DP port (on the port replicator) and connect to HDMI cable for computer monitors and 60 inch LG display, which I believe both receive 60Hz signals. Does good job with desktop apps and streaming 1080p movies from Vudu.

My graphics card is NVIDIA GTX660 2G with HDMI,DVI and Display port,but only display port can support 4K resolution. :)There are 2 ways of delivering 4K content, HDMI and DisplayPort. A) HDMI The current HDMI 1.4 standard only has bandwidth for 4K at 30hz. HDMI 2.0 will add support for 4K at 60Hz. B) DisplayPort 1.2 DisplayPort can support 4K @ 60Hz using Multi-Stream Transport(MST). The graphics card provides signals for multiple displays but these are multiplexed on a single cable. All GeForce GTX 600 and 700 series GPUs can support 4K resolutions through DisplayPort. The NVIDIA driver automatically detects 4K 60Hz tiled format, so no special user set up is required. In order to power games at this resolution with settings turned up NVIDIA recommends GTX 780 SLI or better.

this monitor has 2 inputs VGA and DVIhow ever I would not consider this as double duty (look at J. Nicklin answer)

No, I only use DVI and VGA...both work fine...sorry I can't be of more help.

From their website: http://www.svat.com/productDisplay.php?id=5047&categoryNumber=2&tabID=6 Video Display Output: 2 CH Composite BNC; 1 VGA -------------------------------------- Doesn't look like this one supports DVI.
